my greatest fear
is not the cold dark
grave of my winters existence
or the slow burning decomposition
of my youth into frailty
my greatest fear
is not the blade and rope
of the random psycho killer
white male mid 40's
sexually impotent loner
or the political statement
of the radical dispossessed
my greatest fear
is not the instantaneous fire storm
of nuclear annihilation
my greatest fear
my greatest fear
is not the clock
that ticks the time of my life
away in measured
pieces
as I wait for
death
my greatest fear
is life
this life
that I've been given
will I live it
or will it live
through me
